    Brock does not have the best record when dealing with local teams he is familiar with.

    Kenpom has Cal 15th in the country, Illinois is 53rd. And that idiot LT Profits picked Cal to win the Pac-12 at 8/1 odds in his preseason preview.

    This is the first time Missouri has ventured outside their crib...

    I have them figured to win by 21, but I'm going to leave this one alone.

    Not true, they beat Villanova in New York at MSG and the wins over Cal and Notre Dame were in Kansas City. Besides, they are closer to home here in St. Louis than Illinois is.

    From ESPN:
    Last year's game had a wild finish, with Missouri scoring eight points in a 9-second span of the final minute to break open a tie game in a 75-64 victory.

    8 pts in 9 secs in a lucky fluke. sounds like these teams were grinding it out and Missouri got the lucky win.

    Missouri averages 87.9 pts, Illy = 69. Miss allows 60.2, Illy allows 57.4.

    Sounds like Missouri is an offense team and Illy is a defense team.

    I think I'll pass on this one. BOL luck Brock! Hope you get this one!

    That's fine though because I'd still take the much better team on a neutral court at a fair number.

    Yes it does my friend (or at least it can). As I said let's assume that -7 is the perfect fair 50/50 line. Alright. And then let's also say there's a 4% chance each that they win by 6, 7,and 8 (SBR calculator says they're all around 4%). With those assumptions, at both -6 and +8 you have a 52% chance to win (48% plus 4% chance of winning by 7), a 44% chance to lose and a 4% chance to push. 52/96 is 54.1666%. That is very profitable at -110 (need to beat 52.381%).

    Again, if we assume -7 is a PERFECT breakeven line, then either (or both) -6 and +8 are profitable plays.

    I actually think -7.5/-8 is fair line, so if you didn't bet Missouri last night, game is no longer bettable IMO

    You sure did abandon ship on Illinois in a hurry -- weren't you just telling everyone to pound them a few days ago vs. UNLV?
